Adsorpcja dwuwartościowych kationów na granicy faz hydroksyapatyt/roztwór elektrolitu

Functional and composite materials obtained from hydroxyapatite (HAp) are widely used in practice, which results in intensive research of systems containing hydroxyapatite. Doping with divalent ions of hydroxyapatite changes its properties, thus extending its application in material science. Substitution of calcium ions in the surface layer of hydroxyapatite by metal cations is used in the development of new catalysts, sorbents, sensors and materials for other applications. The doping of the surface of the hydroxyapatite with divalent ions may occur as a result of adsorption of metal cations on the surface groups and calcium exchange in the crystal structure of the hydroxyapatite. The paper presents the mechanisms of adsorption of selected bivalent ions Ba2+, Cd2+, Co2+, Fe2+, Sr2+, Zn2+ on hydroxyapatite. The influence of cation adsorption on unit cell parameters, crystallite size and particle size distribution is discussed.
